1999 Dodge Ram 2500 Van Transmission Q&A

  • What happens when you "ride" your Dodge's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Dodge Ram 2500 Van? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is.

Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
